Permaculture concept in 3 dimensional agricultural landscaping

Abstract

Permaculture is a design system for creating sustainable human environments, that expands its applicabilaty also in agricultural landscaping.Permaculture is not limited to plant and animal agriculture, but also includes community planning and development, use of appropriate technologies (coupledwith an adjustment of life-style), and adoption of concepts and philosophies that are both earth-based and people-centered, such as bioregionalism.The general aim of this study is to emphesise the benefits of permaculture concept in the actual globalization context and serve as a guidepost to right livelihood in concert with the global community and the environment, rather than individualism and indifference.Whereas permaculture ethics are more akin to broad moral values or codes of behavior, the principles of permaculture provide a set of universally applicable guidelines which can be used in designing sustainable habitats. Distilled from multiple disciplines—ecology, energy conservation, landscape design, and environmental science—these principles are inherent in any permaculture design, in any climate, and at any scale.
